How did O’Malley manage to do worse?

Claims he was injured last fight so this time he says he got his shit together completely, in better shape and more focused than ever. Look what happened.

It’ll be interesting to see where he levels out in rankings now that he’s been jumped to the front of the line and punted back.

On both Merab fights you can see all the colour leave Sean’s face like he was having a panic attack or something. Same thing happened to Conor in the Diaz fight.

I think Merab coming in with hands had something to do with it.

Yeah the tide was turning when Merab started landing punches while Omalley ran away. He might have lost every round if he didnt tap to the ninja choke

That was Serra/Longo’s third fight camp vs O malley. They have him completely figured out.

Merab is just the better fighter, it’s really is simple as that. O’Malley is still very good obviously. Merab has done this to everyone.

Give him Umar next.

There’s nothing he could do to close the wrestling gap. It was basically the same fight but he got finished this time.

Because Merab also improved, maybe more than Sean did.

Hate to say it, but once the tide started turning it really felt like Sean accepted it; he did not look like a fighter that was ready to turn it up and “kill or be killed” since he was down 3 rounds.

Yup. People often view the champ as static while challengers have to improve to claim the title.
The guys that keep the title long term are the ones in the gym constantly adding new tools to their bag.

Sandhagen is next and probably Umar after that.

No im saying O’Malley will probably bump up. 2 convincing losses to the champ in a row. Id love to see him vs max

he probably smoked himself retarded by now. doing permanent damage.

its what happened to the Diaz brothers too.

Was it just me or did Sean look skinnier? Dude had no muscle, no abs, lanky and scrawny looking. Maybe going vegan or whatever he did backfired. Dude looked weak af. Needs to do a proper bulk and move up. He can fill out decently at 145

I thought the same, then you had rogan saying how much stronger he looked

Didn’t the announcing crew claim Sean had bulked up and added muscle to his frame?!?!

They said exactly that as I was noticed he didn’t have the abs he used to.
